Choose your destination to travel in this holiday season..Dec to Feb

2. Dubai
This is a superlative-craving society that has birthed the world's tallest building, an island shaped like a palm tree,
huge indoor ski paradise, the world's fastest roller coaster and – soon to come – starchiest-designed art museums of
international stature. With many more grand projects in the pipeline for World Expo 2020, visiting here often feels like
a trip to the future – to two cities firmly in charge of writing their own narrative.
Dubai shopping festival is held every year at Dubai in January month. It’s a month long event offers great excitement to
travellers. During this time Dubai City is decorated with lights all over. Many promotions and offers in every mall
to attract buyers. Entertainment shows for kids and families during evening time.

3. Australia
START THE NEW YEAR with several bangs: Sydney throws possibly the best New Year's Day parties in the world.
Then head on up the Gold Coast to Byron Bay, or the Whitsundays, or the Great Barrier Reef, or indeed anywhere
else along the east coast – the good times just keep rolling. Sydney is a glamorous collusion of beaches, boutiques
and bars. Melbourne is all arts, alleyways and Aussie Rules football. Brisbane is a subtropical town on the way up;
Adelaide has festive grace and pubby poise. Boomtown Perth breathes West Coast optimism; Canberra transcends
political agendas. While the tropical northern frontier town of Darwin, and the chilly southern sandstone city
of Hobart, couldn't be more different.

4. New Zealand
New Zealand is both a dream destination and a once-in-a lifetime place to visit. Made up of two main
islands and a host of smaller ones, New Zealand has an amazing range of breathtaking scenery, from
subtropical forests, beaches and offshore islands in the north to glaciers, lakes, snow-covered mountains and
large flat plains in the south. There are also fjords, volcanoes, hot springs and beautiful rolling green pastures
— a diversity like no other place on earth. Māori culture is potent, the surf is world class, and the craft beer is
awesome. People travel New Zealand to hurl themselves off cliffs and bridges like Shotover Canyon Swing,
Bungy, Blackwater rafting, Quad- Bike Safari, Sky Diving and many more..

5. Thailand
Thailand reminds of Thai food, Thai Spa, busy morning market – or a night out in Bangkok. And of encounters
with history and culture, the new and the old, at just about every turn. Did I mention the white-sand beaches,
jungles, ancient ruins and Buddhist temples.Indeed, the food satisfies – but on second thought, Thailand offers
so much more.

6. South Africa
The diversity of South Africa, stretching from the hippos in the Limpopo River to the penguins waddling on
the Cape, takes some beating. There’s the deserted Kalahari, Namakwa’s springtime symphony of wildflowers,
iconic Table Mountain and Cape Point, Kruger National Park’s wildlife-stalked savannah (scene of the famous
lion-buffalo-crocodile battle watched more than 75 million times on YouTube) and, running through the east of
the country and into Lesotho, the Drakensberg. If you’re interested in another kind of wildlife, hit the
nightclubs on Cape Town’s jumping Long St or sample African homebrew in a township shebeen (unlicensed
bar)

7. Rajasthan
INDIA'S STATE OF PRINCES is spectacular in January. Don't miss the jewels in its crown - pastel-hued Jaipur,
turquoise-speckled Jodhpur and romantically golden Udaipur - but leave room in your itinerary for a
few forgotten treasures: serene Jal Mahal or the lost city of Bhangarh. Gear up to enjoy Jaisalmer desert
festival from 8th feb to 10th feb.

8. Kerala
Kerala , known as Gods Own Country has some of the best tourist destinations in India for any kind of holiday. It
is the land of coconuts, backwaters, elephants and the land of rich cultures and traditions. From the awesome
seashores along the Malabar Shore to the labyrinth of backwater pathways in Alleppey and Kumarakom to the
fantastic verdant hillside tea gardens in Munnar, Kerala’s scenery are almost as different and unique as its
individuals and the lifestyle and record of the individuals of Kerala is a significant component in gaining the
visitors from all over the world. The Aranmula Boat Race the oldest river boat fiesta in Kerala, the south
western State of India is held during Onam (August–September). It takes place at Aranmula, near a Hindu
temple dedicated to Lord Krishna and Arjuna. The snake boats move in pairs to the rhythm of full-throated
singing and shouting watched by an exciting crowd

9. Venice
FEBRUARY IS CARNIVAL TIME in Venice, which makes it either the very best time to come, or the worst. What
seems like a Canaletto painting comes to life every year when revellers gather for three weeks of masked
debauchery. Those seeking the quiet charms of the floating city will be disappointed, but if you dare to join the
huddled masses.

10. Sri Lanka
Endless beaches, timeless ruins, welcoming people, oodles of elephants, rolling surf, cheap prices, fun trains,
famous tea and flavourful food describe Sri Lanka.Few places have as many Unesco World Heritage Sites (eight)
packed into such a small area. Sri Lanka's 2000-plus years of culture can be discovered at ancient sites where
legendary temples boast beautiful details.Across the island, that thing that goes bump in the night might be an
elephant heading to a favourite waterhole. Safari tours of Sri Lanka’s pleasantly relaxed national parks
encounter leopards, water buffaloes, all manner of birds and a passel of primates. In August are the Esala
festivals in Kandy and Kataragama. The Kataragama Esala Festival is a multi-religious festival where devotes use
fire walking and extreme self-penance to shows their piety to Lord Kataragama. The Kandy Esala Perahera or
the Dalanda Perahera is the largest cultural parade in the world and showcases the best of Sri Lankan dancing
and music and the best of the domesticated tuskers in the country.

11. Burma
January is the best month of all (little rain, lots of sunshine, nice kind of heat) in Burma, or Myanmar, from its
pagodas and temples in the misty mountains, where the Himalayas begin, to its blissful, never-knew-
existed tropical islands. Myanmar retains the power to surprise and delight even the most jaded of travellers.
Be dazzled by the 'winking wonder' of Shwedagon Paya. Contemplate the 4000 sacred stupas scattered across
the plains of Bagan. Stare in disbelief at the Golden Rock at Mt Kyaiktiyo, teetering impossibly on the edge of a
chasm. These are all important Buddhist sights in a country where pious monks are more revered than rock
stars.

12. Bruges
If you set out to design a fairy-tale medieval town, it would be hard to improve on central Bruges (Brugge in
Dutch). Picturesque cobbled lanes and dreamy canals link photogenic market squares lined with soaring
towers, historic churches and old whitewashed almshouses. And there’s plenty of it. There’s a special charm
in spring when daffodils carpet the tranquil courtyard of the historic begijnhof retreat, or in winter (except
Christmas) when you can have the magnificent, if icy, town almost to yourself.

13. Mexico
Long a favourite destination for North Americans, Mexico is also becoming increasingly popular with tourists
seeking to enjoy the country's seemingly endless sunshine, stunning scenery, and beautiful sandy beaches - not
to mention its astonishingly rich cultural heritage. So important are Mexico's ancient Aztec and Mayan sites
and historic colonial cities that many have been designated as UNESCO World Heritage Sites, Interestingly,
these locations - including places like Guanajuato, Chichén Itzá, and Uxmal - are often as popular as traditional
beach vacation spots like Cancún, Puerto Vallarta, and Playa del Carmen.

14. Maldives
The Maldives is a by-word for luxury, romance and tropical bliss. A beautiful string of low-lying coral islands in
the Indian Ocean, they're also a paradise for diving enthusiasts and sun seekers alike. The country's 26 natural
atolls and over 1000 islands boast uniformly perfect coasts lapped by turquoise lagoons the temperature of
bath water.
